São Paulo Brazil Temple, Mormon temple in Caxingui district, São Paulo, Brazil.
The white stone and marble temple features a central spire reaching 101 feet high with an angel Moroni statue at its summit.
Construction of the temple started in March 1976 under the direction of James E. Faust, marking the first Mormon temple in South America.
The temple dedication in 1978 sparked substantial growth in church membership across Brazil, from 54,000 to over 300,000 within twelve years.
The temple provides overnight endowment sessions during weekends to accommodate members who travel long distances from different regions of Brazil.
The temple grounds contain a visitors center, converted from a former patron housing facility in 2019, offering educational resources about Mormon history.
